president obama seems to have missed that. he comes into these things late. his own administration describes him as leading by following. i wrote a book on leadership. you can't lead by following. if you're following, you're following. that's what we see in syria. that's what we saw in libya. that's what we saw in egypt. now we see tremendous confusion on the part of this administration about what's really going on in the middle east. you look at libya, it's a scandal. what happened with libya is an absolute scandal of the biggest proportions. i think only because the campaign is going on is it being held back. so the white house, it seems to me, knew that there was real danger to that ambassador. not only didn't they provide the security, it sounds to me like they reduced the security, which is astounding. i'm not sure that's true, but one congressman told me that. if that's true, that's really astounding. >> you saw madeleine albright yesterday call romney's speech full of platitude and free of substance. >> well, i'm sure the former democratic secretary of

>> there is a vulnerability because on the one hand as the obama campaign is saying, romney spoke too soon on libya, the republicans can say the same thing about the administration on libya when susan rice came out and said this was an uprising not a terrorist event. the story has changed since then. so that's something now that the republicans can point to, so there is a bit of a vulnerability. although everybody believes on foreign policy that's far, far secondary to the primary issue of this campaign which is the economy. >> john, i want to ask you about mitt romney and his foreign policy advisers and how he would differ from president obama. there's a piece in "new york times" where he says of mr. romney beyond his critique of president obama failing to show strength of u.s. abroad he has a fractured team of advisers that include warring tribes of neo-conservatives and others. is there a could herren strategy coming from mitt romney on foreign policy or is it a work in progress? >> it's absolutely a work in progress and in part that's because you don't really know what a president
